What Were They Thinking?

Let it be known to all that the wearing of a Keffiyeh is showing your support for the terrorists who daily shoot rockets into Israel. Rachael Ray and Dunkin' Donuts found that out recently when an ad for Dunkin' Donuts showed Ms. Ray wearing the Keffiyeh. Dunkin' Donuts pulled the ad and issued an apology for it.

And just like one Sandra Tieger, 20, alleged to smh.com.au she began to feel like a terrorism supporter following the reaction to her wearing a black and white scarf to work at Kemeny's. She too learned that the Keffiyeh is a symbol of anti-Semitism and terror.

Today in France a person can buy a shirt not with a cute slogan, but with an anti-Semitic message on it.

The message is
"Jews forbidden from entering the park" in German and Polish. A nice sentiment don't you think?

These shirt are being sold at Parisian stores in the
Belleville district. An assistant sales clerk in the shop said:
One person had bought five of the grey, sleeveless garments for about 18 euros ($27) each, but added that said she did not understand what the inscription meant.
Oh I'm sure she understood totally what they meant. How can one sell a shirt and not know what it says? What else could she say. Hey! I'm an anti-Semite who wished that Hitler killed all the Jews? That's what she meant right.

The National Bureau of Vigilance Against Anti-Semitism (BNVCA), a community organization that monitors anti-Semitic incidents in France, made the complaint to police after a journalist with news agency Agence France Press (AFP) found five of the grey, sleeveless T-shirts on sale in the store early on Tuesday. When the journalist returned shortly afterwards they had been removed.

BNVCA president Sammy Ghozlan said the park reference was all the more disturbing as Jewish youths regularly complain of being targeted by anti-Semitic gangs in Belleville Park.

He called for the store to be shut down and for the manufacturer, the importer and the wholesaler of the T-shirts to be arrested on the charge of "inciting to racial hatred by inscriptions with anti-Semitic character."

In June, a kippa-wearing 17-year-old was attacked by a mob of African youths in the same district of Paris.

The Belleville neighborhood of Paris has undergone many changes throughout the decades. While Armenians, Greeks and Ashkenazi Jews were once the predominant ethnic groups, North Africans, and more recently, sub-Saharan Africans are displacing other ethnic groups.

Then again this is France. And with a minority of 20%, Muslims and their hatred for Jews get to riot and rape with impunity while the French police just stand by.

Soon you will see these shirts coming to a store near you. After all I expect to see some of those Hollywood bimbos known as celebrities to start wearing them this summer. Why not? It is fashionable to be anti-Semitic these days. Just ask the French!
